Whisper

You Jin creates kaleidoscopic and fascinating worlds on canvas with his vibrant use of colour and layering of space. Scenes appear chaotic at first glance, but are in fact cunningly constructed from fragmented images, in which multiple angles are used to produce layered dimensions, depths, and perspectives on a flat canvas, drawing the viewer's gaze outwards and constructing an infinite extension of space. Several originally one-dimensional images are placed within the same scene, revealing the artist's interest in depicting the complexities of contemporary society. This piece, entitled Whisper, features a man and a woman sitting on a crossbeam with just one another for company, as if disregarding the chaotic world around them and completely engrossed in one another.
